It is with heavy hearts that we share the sudden passing of Paxton the Prairie Dog ❤️

It is with heavy hearts that we share the sudden passing of Paxton the Prairie Dog due to long term health issues. Paxton's journey with us began just before Christmas 2023, when he was rescued from a situation of neglect. His previous owner had surrendered him after a simple infection was left untreated, leading to the loss of his arm. Despite his rough start, Paxton showed incredible strength and resilience.

Pax required round-the-clock care initially, but he quickly became strong and developed the sweetest personality. One of our favorite memories of him is how he would always gallop over to us, no matter what he was doing, to request cheeky rubs. He would instantly melt into our hands with contentment, his little nose twitching adorably, always seeming to have a toothy smile on his face.

Paxton quickly became an integral part of our family, alongside Poppy and Penelope, forming the trio we fondly called the Three P’s. Pax also known as “Snaxton” loved his snacks and had a keen sense of adventure, always eager to explore his surroundings.

In the short five months we had with him, we showered him with all our love, and he reciprocated with all his heart.

Paxton’s presence brought immense joy and love into everyone’s lives. Though his time with us was brief, the impact he made was profound. Our hearts ache with his loss, but we cherish the memories of his playful spirit and affectionate nature.
